D'Addario Helicore Pizzicato Double Bass String Set 3/4

Helicore’s premium quality materials combined with skilled workmanship produces strings known for excellent pitch stability and longevity. Packaged in uniquely-designed sealed pouches providing unparalleled protection from the elements that cause corrosion.

D'Addario makes Helicore Pizzicato strings for players who play mostly pizzicato (plucking), hence the name. They have the most sustain and growl in the Helicore family of strings. They have a brighter attack for pizz play, which can provide that more "modern" jazz tone, and cut through a denser mix. If you do bow, though, you might consider the Hybrids, as they maintain some of the pizzicato "presence" but are easier to bow than the Pizzicatos.
